General Notes

The Arcanna's Set is somewhat designed for a Sorceress, but even with the full set it would only be useful for one early on in the game. It does have a nice blue color scheme though.

These are the stats for the set in Diablo II Expansion Pack: Lord of Destruction, where there are partial set bonuses and hidden item bonuses.


  • Item level (ilvl): Used in many in-game calculations. Monsters must be of this level to drop the item.
  • Character level (clvl): The character level you need to be to be able to wear or equip the item.
  • Hidden bonuses stack together. For instance, if an item has a bonus for two items and a bonus for three items, and three items are worn, both the bonus for two items and for three items will become active.
  • It is possible to gamble Set and Unique items in v1.09+. The odds are roughly 1/1000 for Set items and 1/2000 for Unique items.
  • Items with Rarity are expressed as a chance out of 1000. IE 78/1000 would mean that out of every 1000 set items of that base item that drop, 78 of them will be this particular one.

Weapon Notes

  • Damage Bonus: This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. Multiply by the listed value per 100 points in that stat. All bows are 100 Dex, almost all melee weapons are 100 Str, most throwing weapons are 50/50.
  • Weapon Speed: A relative comparison to other weapons of the same type. 0 is the base -10, -20, etc is faster, 10, 20, etc is slower, always in increments of 10. Each 10 is equivalent to an SIAS item. Previously items were listed with WSM modified by IAS on the items, we have revised this to show the Weapons base speed (WSM) before ANY IAS.
  • Range: Relevant to melee weapons only. From 1 (least) to 5 (most) in D2X. Numbers are fixed across item classes: a 3 javelin = a 3 sword = a 3 hammer, etc.

* When wearing another item of this set, the defense of this skull cap will increase at a rate of 3 defense per clvl. ** When wearing another item in this set, the defense of this plate will increase to 190-207.

Set Bonuses

Not a bad set, with a pretty blue color scheme, and a few items of use on their own. Arcanna's total set bonus isn't bad, with the Fastest Cast as well as a decent +mana bonus, but you can easily exceed those bonuses with four good replacement items, so this one has no real long term use, especially since not using a shield is such a good way to get killed.

Not bad for low level Sorceress if you can't find anything else for a +skill bonus.

* Deadly Strike is double damage, applied after all other damage, including elemental and bonus from dexterity or skills, such as Critical Strike. An Amazon can get quadruple damage with this and her skill.
